Oh how I miss all those pictures of Corners of my Home, when I first started blogging there was a routine to posting...Self Portrait Tuesday, WIP Friday and Corners of my Home...as time has gone by this has trailed off and most people who blog enjoy the more freestyle way of writing. I miss this, it was a way to learn more about the person behind the blog. As a nosey person who loves looking in houses and flicking through the endless stacks of magazine and House books just to see how a house interior is designed... well, Corners of my home is missed here. So this morning I wondered around the house once I had picked up the children PJs off the floor and put away the toys the boys get out before they head off to school... with camera in hand looking for a shot... My photo wall came to mind. I miss my photo wall when I am away, its full of photos that spark off special memories, from friends far a field, the birth of my babes and celebrations . So I took a few snaps it was only when I uploaded the photos to my laptop that what struck me was the dust... I am not a houseproud person, to much living goes on here for that, however all I saw was the dust... so guess what I am off to do...

Three cheers for the weekend, I have reacquainted myself with my machine, the bag is finished I just want to make a few little accessories to go with it, tomorrow I am off my patchwork course and Sunday is a family day...I wish you a great weekend.

Your little stitchery is gorgeous! I love the fact that you have done it on that beautiful linen - it looks contemporary and old-fashioned at the same time! And your owl sketches are lovely - especially the flapping/jumping one! But as for the dust - why not just considerate it as an insulation layer in the current credit-crunch times!

Love that embroidery so much - when the front looks that good who cares about the back. Haven't got into the swing of embroidery yet having bought some of the kit but I feel like this winter I will :o)

I often like the backgrounds of peoples photos as much as the subject just for those glimpses of the real life and home - happy weekend, especially on your course.

I hope you can come up with an idea for the owl sketches, I love owls too, and love the little badge I had from you. I hope you are having a lovely weekend, and enjoyed some sunshine in your part of the country. x

Hi Suz,The embroidery is beautiful, it has such a 'happy' feel to it, it's a lovely design and I'm sure the back of it only adds to its charm in showing the enthusiasm of the sewer :)See you soonkatexxx

I NEED to do the little idea sketch thing when something pops into my mind. More than that, I need to do like you and actually follow through with an idea from beginning to END! I have enjoyed reading your blog.

I am a Mom with two great Kids, I have been blogging as Suzie Sews for a few years now, writing about my creative life, sharing my life style and of course writing about life as a Mom. My life was happy, easy and I felt blessed. BAM!!! Out of the blue my life was turned upside down. I am facing the challenges and accepting the changes. So here I am still dyslexic, still Mothering, taking pictures, sewing and trying hard to be a Domestic Goddess whilst making a living. Holding it all together and wearing many hats and keeping all the juggling balls up in the air at the same time...
